In this episode of Booked for Two, we crack open the first novella of The Assassin’s Blade by Sarah J. Maas: The Assassin and the Pirate Lord. And y’all… Celaena’s out of the glass castle and heading straight into Pirate Territory™. What could possibly go wrong?

The mission? Simple. Travel to Skull’s Bay with Sam Cortland, handle a little business, and return to the Assassins’ Keep. The reality? Pirate Lords, slave ships, and enough tension between Sam and Celaena to cut through bone. And yeah… there's a horse involved.

🔹 Celaena is sent on a mission—but she’s not playing by anyone’s rules but her own. 🔹 Sam Cortland enters the chat… and instantly becomes Problematic™ in the best way. 🔹 Rolfe, the Pirate Lord, finds out the hard way that underestimating Celaena is a very bad idea. 🔹 Swashbuckling, sabotage, and some morally-questionable flirting—what’s not to love? 🔹 He Said/She Said is BACK! Who wins this round: deadly eyeliner or boyish charm?

And don’t forget—next week we keep the novellas rolling with The Assassin and the Healer! Plus, our Fourth Wing spoiler-free AND spoiler-filled review drops Monday, March 31—mark it down, dragon lovers.
